Go Humble, Give Smiles Humble Brush – creating change one toothbrush at a time

 

We all have to get up in the morning and brush our teeth, but what if that bathroom essential could mean more than just keeping our mouths healthy and clean? Start a Humble Revolution with Humble Brush – the effective, safe product with an innovative twist. A sustainable, bamboo toothbrush, get that thorough clean while keeping it green, and contributing to making a real difference in the lives of people in need across the world.

Handcrafted, each brush addresses two major issues with toothbrushes today: leaving an environmental footprint and not everyone owns one. On a mission to help address these problems, Humble Brush isn’t just kind to the planet, they are helping others in need. Every Humble Brush purchased goes toward children in need participating in a comprehensive preventive oral care program.

Founded by a small group of dentists from different parts of the world, The Humble Co. was created from a shared commitment to oral health and an understanding that it’s not necessary to harm our environment just to brush our teeth properly. From Jamaica to Ethiopia, each dentist was already involved in dental outreach volunteer work.

 

Last year, The Humble Smile Foundation traveled to Matola, Mozambique – one of the poorest and most underdeveloped countries – to educate the community on preventive oral health care. Teaming up with the International Association of Dental Students (IADS) and Sunshine Approach, Humble Smile helped two primary schools, an orphanage and a shelter to child victims of human trafficking, focus on habit change, the introduction of tooth brushing to the daily school routine, handwashing, and educating to healthy nutritional choices. Over 1,274 children were screened for oral disease and hundreds of cavities were treated with Silver Diamine Fluoride. Sharing ideas for preventive strategies with policymakers, Humble Smile was an integral part of Sunshine & Smiles – check out the full experience here.  

Starting in September, the team behind the Humble Story will be making a journey across the U.S. to raise awareness about their efforts, and to educate communities on the importance of preventive oral care. 

The Humble Brush is available in more than 20,000 stores around the world with major retailers including Waitrose, Rossman, Whole Foods UK, Carrefour, Douglas, Mothercare and many more. Humble Brush is also available across the US for the price of $4.99.
